> If you have a MySQL or PostgreSQL system that's bursting at the seams
Postgresql ? How does this work for people migrating from traditional SQL databases - typically people use ORM. How would this fit in with, say , Rails or SqlAlchemy ?

We are going to produce some additional collateral on migrating from popular RDBMS, but the Quizlet post is the best reference right now for migrating from MySQL.

We have released client libraries for Java, Go, Node and Python on Github, but we haven't used those clients to implement support for popular ORMs.
Basically, the open-source ecosystem will need to add support for these ORMs but we will contribute wherever we can to push these initiatives. If we get lots of demand for a specific ORM, we will look into doing something special for that.
Hope that helps.
